Filter by:Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary liver tumors. Surgical resection remains the first choice of early stage HCC because the result is superior to other treatments and not limited to liver donation. However, liver resection is criticized that tumor recurrent rate is more than 50% in 5 years although the tumors are completely resected. In our large scale study including 1639 patients with liver resection for HCC, the 1-, 3-, and 5-year disease survival were 73.7%, 58.3% and 53.3%, respectively. Currently there are no effective treatment used as adjuvant therapy to prevent HCC recurrence. Dendritic cells (DC) are the most potent professional antigen-presenting cells, and can capture tumor antigens to provoke antigen-specific cytotoxic T-cells. DC pulsed by tumor associated antigens can be used to proceed tumor-specific immunotherapy. Thereafter, DC pulsed HCC tumor-antigens may be used as an adjuvant therapy to prevent HCC recurrence.
Colorectal cancer is prevented by colonoscopy and polypectomy. Failure to recognize the endoscopic resection scar after Endoscopic Mucosal Resection (EMR) risks unrecognized recurrent or residual adenoma (RRA), which may propagate into post-colonoscopy colorectal cancer. Expert series suggest scar recognition and interrogation is well performed with a high negative predictive value of endoscopic imaging vs histopathology. In this study the authors will investigate the performance of endoscopic imaging in detecting RRA at an endoscopic resection scar amongst general endoscopist and the impact of a learning intervention on recognition of RRA.
The purpose of this study is to determine how safe and how well-tolerated the experimental study drug, C134 is when re-administered into the brain where the tumor is located.
This phase I trial tests safety, side effects and best dose of B-cell activating factor receptor (BAFFR)-based chimeric antigen receptor T-cells, with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide lymphodepletion, for the treatment of patients with B-cell hematologic malignancies that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed) or that does not respond to treatment (refractory). BAFFR-based chimeric antigen receptor T-cells is a type of treatment in which a patient's T cells (a type of immune system cell) are changed in the laboratory so they will attack cancer cells. T cells are taken from a patient's blood. Then the gene for a special receptor that binds to a certain protein on the patient's cancer cells is added to the T cells in the laboratory. The special receptor is called a chimeric antigen receptor (CAR). Large numbers of the CAR T cells are grown in the laboratory and given to the patient by infusion for treatment of certain cancers. Giving chemotherapy, such as fludarabine and cyclophosphamide, helps ill cancer cells in the body and helps prepare the body to receive the BAFFR based chimeric antigen receptor T-cells. Giving BAFFR based chimeric antigen receptor T-cells with fludarabine and cyclophosphamide for lymphodepletion may work better for the treatment of patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell hematologic malignancies.
In this study, the pentavalent bioconjugate candidate vaccine (Candi5V) against Candida will be tested to obtain first-time-in-human (FTIH) data on its safety, immunogenicity, and preliminary efficacy in women with recurrent vulvovaginal candidiasis.
Recurrent acute pancreatitis (RAP) was defined as two or more occurrences of acute pancreatitis, which was associated with higher percentages of morbidities and mortalities, lower patients' life quality and increased health-care costs. Current interventions, including cholecystectomy and abstain from drinking were reported to be effective methods for preventing the recurrences of biliary and alcoholic etiologies, respectively. However, there were no effective preventions for other etiologies, such as idiopathic etiologies. Non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including indomethacin, diclofenac and aspirin could inhibiting the inflammatory cascade of pancreatitis. In this study, we aimed at exploring the effects of 100mg aspirin on reducing the occurrences of recurrent acute pancreatitis.
The aim of this study is to assess the clinical outcomes in real-life setting of early breast cancer RH+ HER2- patients with systemic therapy guided by Oncotype DX (ODX) Breast Recurrence Score®.
The goal of this investigational study is to evaluate participation in a weekly, interactive, tender loving care messaging platform impact on pregnancy outcomes in patients with recurrent pregnancy loss. The main questions it aims to answer are: (1) does participation in weekly, interactive tender loving care messages increase live birth rates in patients with recurrent pregnancy loss? (2) Does participation in weekly, interactive tender loving care messages increase patients' quality of life? Does participation in weekly, interactive tender loving care messages decrease patients' depressive symptoms? Participants will be asked to interact with weekly messages providing prenatal counseling and support. Additionally, patients will be asked to complete the fertility quality of life survey several times over the course of the pregnancy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the process and outcomes of an implementation program designed to implement fear of cancer screening, referral and management into routine cancer care clinics, using a stepped-wedge cluster randomized controlled trial.
A sequential multiple-assignment randomized controlled trial (SMART) will be used to assess the effect of an adaptive stepped-care intervention on FCR in cancer survivors with subclinical levels of fear of cancer recurrence.
